Beschreibung:

This "skyphos," a large drinking cup, depicts a dancer and a "komast," a drunken reveler. The dancer lunges to the right with extended arms, while the "komast" stands in profile holding a "skyphos." These scenes of festivity are fitting for this vessel, which was associated with the "symposium" (men's drinking party). This particular piece bears evidence of ancient repairs: several copper-alloy clamps-some now broken-were used to join the pieces of the damaged vessel, indicating the value of the "skyphos" to the owner even after it had lost its function of holding liquid.
